Admittedly though the original specification does leave more room for interpretation than the updated one: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#section-10.4.9 Good to see that those things are more strictly defined (and better explained) in the newer RFCs/drafts. That makes it easier for us when reporting RFC violations to our beloved vendors. Regards, Lukas
